Biography

Dr. Sean Weidman is an energetic teacher-scholar-administrator who holds a Ph.D. in English from the Pennsylvania State University. 

Sean's scholarship orbits the early 20th century, around global Anglomodernisms, histories of anti/coloniality, and the politics of welcoming; he also dabbles in the digital humanities. Some of his essays on literary modernism have appeared in English Literary History, Modernism/modernity, Twentieth-Century Literature, and Journal of Modern Literature, and you can find his digital modernist research in venues like Digital Humanities Quarterly and Digital Scholarship in the Humanities. His current book project tracks hospitality鈥檚 circulation and influence across the violent fractures of fin-de-si猫cle modernity鈥攁s political discourse, social form, anti/colonial history, and Anglomodernist literary culture.

At 糖心Vlog, Sean teaches in the Honors College. He's taught across the gamut of cultural studies, critical theory, English, writing, and the digital humanities. 

He鈥檚 fond of autumn rain, strong coffee, and cozy sweaters.
